What football team does your next door neighbour support?

Leeds, even though he hates the English

Absolutely no idea. I do not think he is interested in football, anymore than we are.

Newcastle.
We are Sunderland.

Liverpool the same as us. The neighbour on the other side likes cricket.

Same one we do - he's got good taste!

Sunderland - he used to play for them, but we’re Newcastle United.

Why should I or you be interested in my next door neighbour?
Why assume they support any football team either?

Norwich on one side, Manchester United on the other, both loyal to their respective home towns.
This is more of a rugby and rowing town but football is still the topic of ‘bins day’ chats.

Wrexham, his home town.

No idea why would I ? I know they like my runner beans though

Interesting times for you Georgesgran and Galaxy now Sunderland are back in the Premier League!

Newcastle for me but no idea about my neighbour

My dad supported Newcastle, his nearly home town, and my brother when he was a boy chose to support Sunderland, 300 miles from his home town, just to be cantankerous 🤣

No idea. It never comes up in conversation.

I will confess that my support for Sunderland stems from the crush I had on a Sunderland player who lived next to me when I was a teenager.

I can't say I know either. I do know he is very loud and exitable when England are playing.

My one neighbour is a 97 year old widow. I don't think she's into football! The other side are a young Muslim couple. I don't think they like football.

You don't have to comment on on a thread if you find the subject stupid, same as the Christmas thread, just move on to another thread you find more interesting

My cousin lives in Sunderland and is a mad Sunderland supporter as is the rest of the family, her partner supports Newcastle lol. Personally I prefer rugby. Sorry slightly off topic .

It is however permitted to have an opinion about the subject or the logic of question.
Mine is 1) why assume everybody supports a football team 2) ask me by all means but 3) where do any of my neighbours come into it?

I am from Liverpool and don't like football so don't support anyone. There is so much competition between the supporters of the two home teams, Liverpool and Everton, that I am glad I don't support either. The first question I am asked is 'who do you support?' In Liverpool you don't even have to state what your talking about, when I say I don't like football, then I am looked at as if I have two heads!

It wouldn't occur to me to ask!
